I. can. not. stand. Hillary. Clinton, or even her husband.

I'm a Republican, and I support Huckabee, but if it was to be a democrat I wouldn't mind Obama.

I also wouldn't mind if Ron Paul or Romney won it.

How does she deserve it?

I feel like it's this:
If you want everyone to be equal, no matter how hard they work, you're a democrat.

If you believe that people work for their status, then you're republican.

This is why the Latinos will definitely vote Democrat, while the wealthiest of Americans will vote Republican.

I don't think voting for Hillary Clinton just because she could be "The first woman president" or "She deserves it" (Still don't understand how she does) is the right way to decide who to vote for.

I disagree with her views on giving citizenship to illegal immigrants.
I disagree with the fact that there should be an increased tax for wealthy Americans.

Still, you guys aren't the one voting; neither am I, but my parents voted for Romney (yesterday), and my brother voted for Ron Paul (although, doesn't look like he's going to get it)

I think a lot of people are being swept aside in a big supposed "inspiration" wave by Obama, and are looking over the fact that, as far as I'm aware anyway, he doesn't really have many policies. Clinton has the experience of being in the White House and managing some political affairs with her husband Bill, and seems more resilient and determined to do something, rather than running the risk of all style and no substance with Obama.

Where do you get that from, its like a consensus for an "AGAINST OBAMA TACTIC"

she votes for war with Iran and Iraq

OBAMA doesnt want war with anyone of those countries, which would only get more of our own people dead.

the buzz word "experience" used with clinton is used as a tactic for avoiding Obama, its so transparent

Obama doesnt want war with Iran , Clinton does, What Experience is that?

Firstly, Iraq isn't "war" any more. Just because Obama wants to drop everything and run away from the mess we've made, does not mean that Clinton's an idiot for staying there and try to clean it up.

As for Iran, I've personally no idea on that. From what I've heard, and I read a lot of news, I haven't heard her explicitly say "WAR WITH IRAN".

And as for having "more of our own people dead", well maybe they shouldn't join the army before they go to war then. That sounds extremely inconsiderate, I know, but you should know the dangers before joining.

Not sure if those figures are correct. According to BBC News;

Hillary Clinton
12 states, 1045 delegates

Barack Obama
15 states, 960 delegates

Anyone think there's been a case of multiple accounts with the voting? It was about 12-4 to Clinton vs. Obama

Hillary Clinton is a moron, but Obama will be new antichrist.

It's a tough choice for who the American people want as the new president.

Barack Obama. He's a breath of fresh air for America: someone needed to take that vital step, and he did it. Having seen some of his interviews, he also has personal first-hand experience in the issues he wants to resolve as President, and I think that greatly increases his credibilty. Furthermore, he relied on funding purely through American people, i.e. through his book. In fact, the book itself was a great idea for the American people to learn more about him, and what he is about.

I'm surprised at the turnaround in voting on this poll: however, having said that, it still seems that Hillary Clinton still has a lot of popularity. The fact is though, the Clinton name does not give a fresh start for the USA: this is a time where change is crucial, and many people see Obama as that change. He's called himself the 'underdog' on many occasions, which I agree with, because he really is proving to be the dark horse in this race.

The lead is sliding for Hillary. What a surprise.

People are starting to see right through her. People just don't want Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton. They want a new change.
